Uncle Charlie showed commend able business acumen in extracting a guarantee of $25,000 from the German promoter Rothenburg for this fight, and, in fact, some guys are already boosting Harvey for the position of ambassador or some thingsince he seems to be the only man able to collect any European debts. On the other hand, there are Caustic c arries on By CAUSTIC Back in Washington, D. C, where the senators ami repre sentatives sit in new and shiny office buildings, meet visiting firemen and periodically spout into the Congressional Record for home consumption the boys are getting worried about the senatorial waistline (or should we say waste-line). To remedy many a bulging paunch jester 'day a move was started to or ganize the Senators' and Repre sentatives' Strictly A mat ear Athletic and Social C -b. A year ago ' the congressional gymnasium was opened. Bare it was of equipment. It had only a wrestling mat and a pair of hori zontal bars. Few senators wished to wrestle after a strenuous day of wrestling vlth the gold ques tion, the faiJQ question o- the de pression. And the horizontal bars preferred by senators aren't the kind found in gymnasiums. Some few law-ma" ers, 'tis true, brought their own bat and ball to play : n occasional game of one ol' cat. The system was unsatisfactory. The -senator that owned the bat and ' ball always wanted to make hia own rules, plus speeches. Now, with oyer 100 con gressmen contributing, the Coin. - gresslonril . Athletic e lab haa been started with (all supply of punching bags, ping pong -. tables, tennis,-' badminton and , . volleyball ' act s, gymnasium ." equipment and r o wing mc : chines. Perhaps ; the senators have even remembered the hob- " by of President Coolldge and .provided..; the gymnasium .with an electric . horse. ' , For Senator Hooey P. .Long we recommend a few sessions at the punching- bag to 'save the gentle man (yeah?) from; Louisiana the embarrassment of a repetition of the Sand Point, L. L affair.

By BURNLEY' IMP. those who intimate that old Handle bars committed a deadly error when he took his Stevie overseas to bat tle Schmeling in the latter's own stamping ground. The inference here is that Master Hamaa will have to annihilate Der Moxie in order to get the verdict; and if you can believe many of the fight handlers who have taken American boxers over to Europe, Hamas is certainly on the spot. Of course, Steve can eliminate all chances of getting the well-known works if he flattens the Berlin Bomber. Baer did this little.trick, and Hamas believes that he can emulate the titleholder. Nevertheless, the erstwhile col legian failed to have Schmeling in trouble t anv time over the twelve Congressional athletic club branching out ; Perhaps Huey will learn something useful; Pade's has tough breaks. two might forego debate and meet in the squared circle of the gymnasium to settle the weighty affairs of state with 16-oz. gloves. Anyway it might get things settled a little faster. O Battered but grinning, Pade's came back from the Oregon zone tournament still -confident that they could beat Union Oil un der ordinary circumstances. Hard luck hit Pade's in the tourna ment. First, three star players were disqualified on the grounds that they were hot amateurs. Then Kloostra broke a toe in the first game. Kitchen played through the tournament with an ulcerated tooth. Foreman .turned his ankle in a practice game. To top it otf Pade's had to meet Union Oil after a strenuous game with, Pacific that afternoon. The Oilers bad coasted through a game with Mt. Angel, using plen ty of reserves. The boys, under the circumstances, did mighty fine and better 1 ft next time. - Dundee Defeats: Carlton to Win Yamhill B Title NEWBURG, March 4.

The best punch of that bout was landed by the German when he broke Steve's nose with a whizzing right hand in the eleventh round. Judging by his sensational kayo victory over Walter Neusel a per formance which stands out all the jnore since Neusel stopped Jack Peterson Herr Schmeling is punching as hard as he did in his palmiest days. The deadly right hand that was mysteriously miss ing since he belted out Mickey Walker has apparently recovered all the old dynamite. If Hamas surmounts all these hazards, and whips Max again, it wjll greatly strengthen his claimt to the No. 1 challenger's position. CcojrUhi. Itll. Klni rtnrw Indicate. Inc. HE OF NEWBERS GETS HIGH POINTS DALLAS, March 4 When Lane, Newberg forward, garnered 9 out of 11 points scored against Silverton Friday night, he scored Just enough to net himself high scoring honors in the Willamette Interscholastic league basketball race. Averaging 9.7 points to the game and totaling 137 points in 14 games, he managed to squeeze out Burrell Webb, Dallas , center, by one small point. The latter scored 136 points in, the same number of games. Both Lane and Webb were a bit slow in slipping Into the .limelight. Webb led the field for about the last three weeks of play, with Lane coming up quick ly in about the last five games. Webb was shoved into first place when he countered 27 against Canby and 24 against Woodburn, and also setting a scoring record for. one game in his own high school. Lane ran his total to within three points of Webb's in each team's 12 th game. The game was between Dallas and Newberg and Lane doubled the score on Webb, scoring 12 points to Webb's 6. This ran' their totals to 131 for Webb and 128 for Lane. , Pleasant, Dallas forward, ran close behind with 119. .

The sailor, who doubles In brass and his publicity as a rough ridin' bronco buster, is air pre pared to take some of the elo quent Grand Avenue meanness out of the Bulldog. No stickler for ethicB himself, he will attempt to equal or outdo the fine Italian schemings of Plugugly Jackson. The Bulldog, with no intention of relinquishing his meanest man on earth title, is set to give the barnacled Mr. Watkins a man handling he will remember. For a bit of training both of the graft piers last night were participants in a six-man free for all in the Portland arena. Fans who have a taste for the more subtle element in wrestling will get plenty of science in the match between Stacy Hall, for merly of Columbus, Ohio, and Mickey McGuire, West Salem Ir ishman. The Ohio boy, who has taken tip residence in Salem, has shown himself a grappler of main event calibre. McGuire has just returned from a barnstorming tour of the eastern mats and Is reported to be in fine fettle. Billed as "a big surprise" has been the 30 minute opener in which Joe Reno will grapple with The Snowball, otherwise known as The Black Panther and the Dark Menace. The "Snowball, 160 pound grappler from St. Joseph, Missouri, Is described as clean, fast and brilliant. A master of many holds, he was a great box- office attraction in the middle- west. It is the first time a negro wres tler has been billed on a local card and will be a novely to most of the fans. Harry Elliott will ref eree the matches. ST.
